New Link Trail at Greenough
Oct 20, 2013 – A short new link trail has been cleared on the Greenough Land, connecting the main parking lot on Maple Street with the north end of the Blueberry Trail and opening up the opportunity to create various loops. This trail partially follows an existing informal trail that parallels Maple Street near its junction with East Street, passing interesting rock formations before emerging opposite the Blueberry Trail entrance just south of the Brook Street junction.

Foss Boardwalk Completed
May 4, 2013 – Assisted by a large crew of volunteers, the Trails Committee completed a new 60-foot long boardwalk crossing a small stream just south of Foss Farm parking lot, to provide access to the South Field loop trail with newly-cleared field edges. This boardwalk replaces the “Bridge to Nowhere” – a boy scout project many years ago that crossed only part of the swamp. Before and after photos are shown below.
